This sign was done by Orange Outdoor Advertising Inc. in the mid to late 80’s by owner and walldog Jerry Johnson. Johnson is best known for his remarkable spoof ads he did on Atlantic and Nevins years back. Originally from Cleveland OH, Jerry moved here in 1975 and opened Orange Outdoor in 1977. Orange is still located in Brooklyn, NY. (718) 941-0203.

Nino il Pizzaiulo – the Pizza Chef (originally from South Brooklyn) works at Enzo’s Pizzeria at 217 Prospect Park West in Windsor Terrace. Nino was kind enough to allow me to photograph him as he warmed up before a day’s work.
Ft. Greene's Beer Garden – Thomas Beisl – Across from BAM

Always enjoyed sitting at the bar with a cheese and wurst plate, an Austrian beer on tap and an espresso with a linzertort mit schlag to finish off. Great soups too! The garden out back (which feels like out front) is a wonderful Brooklyn getaway in the summer, while still being in the thick of things.
